For those who return but are never the same.
We Remember
I love the community where I live. Today there was a memorial tribute and a parade. People came from all over the area to participate today. The Town Center streets were lined with families and those who wanted to pay tribute and to remember all who served in the military, police, and fire department. I walked from my car with a Veteran to the street, as we walked together, he told me that he was a Viet Nam Vet. The closer we got to Main Street, we saw children, people of all cultures and servicemen with their families. It was at that point, he turned to me and said, "There is still Hope." I agreed, and it was an emotional moment that he had served, but not in vain.
I am taking this opportunity to tell all who have served throughout the world, Thank you. Including my family.
Il abonde dans ma cours aujourd'hui c'est un plaisir de les voir aller d'un va et vient continuel !
It abounds in my course today it is a pleasure to see them go a continual coming and going!

Memorial Day USA
Millions of Americans will head to beaches and barbeques this Memorial Day weekend, perhaps even hundreds of millions, while only hundreds of thousands are likely to attend formal Memorial Day observances devoted to remembering the men and women who have given their lives so that the rest of us could live in safety and have the freedom to enjoy those beaches and barbeques.

Revelation 2:5 King James Version (KJV)
5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
the best time to visit a church.. when it's closed.
Remembering the heroes is a human thing, though, and I am grateful for their sacrifices and all we won for them. x
Poem: Remember words
Where are all the hopeless being aware
of words with worst traits we might share
it's like looking at my own misspelled words
I know at times there must be a vicious spell
I couldn't handled words otherwise or bear,
my only purpose is to widely use spellchecker
Recently Temple Sinai in Middletown held a Holocaust memorial service. Pastor Rustico attended. All present were given a memorial candle. It was on the altar at St. John's this past weekend,
In a break from all the Christmas images I thought I'd travel back in time a few months and present a nice Autumnal image.

War... Such a horrible thing! And yet, there are still people out there that seem to be driving to it.. Let's hope that by remembering lost lives we will avoid more of such loss..
Just remembering our sunny weather in early Spring as it has changed drastically again since the day before yesterday... It's always good to have photos to remember lightful and sunny days when there is just grey sky and everything looks just sad and .... oh my! I can fully understand all of you who still have heavy snow and ice... I know we still have Winter too. It's not the Winter that makes me sad but it's the grey sky and dark days... as everything then also looks so dark.
I need light! And you?
Have a great weekend everybody!
For many people it's the High Season of Carnival ;-)) - Wish everybody a lovely and joyful weekend and the days to come! Enjoy and behold these joyful moments!

Looking Back 100 Years.
The Somme, WW1.
Guillemont Road Cemetery now contains 2,263 Commonwealth burials and commemorations of the First World War. 1,523 of the burials are unidentified but there are special memorials to eight casualties known or believed to be buried among them.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
National Memorial Arboretum . So disappointed, when I visited for Remembrance Sunday, November, last year, there was a lot of construction work spoiling photos, thought my visit today would be better, but no they still still have barriers , cement mixer, and the floor of the memorial is still not finished . The plant collectors fair was good though
Mum died 20 years ago on Saturday and so I took flowers to where her ashes are scattered. It is a woodland site which is divided into woodland glades. I think it is one of the most uplifting places to go and remember. There is an abundance of wild flowers, bushes, birds and red squirrels.

I’ll disappear in the fog as a foreigner to all life, as a human island detached from the dream of the sea, as a uselessly existing ship that floats on the surface of everything.
Remembering Benjamin Zephaniah who transitioned one year ago today 7 December 2023.
Poet, writer and activist born in 1958. Saturday 12th April 2025, will be known as Benjamin Zephaniah Day. Led by Qian Zephaniah, Benjamin's wife, the gathering falls on the beloved poet, writer, actor and activist's birthday weekend. Treasured as ‘the people’s laureate,’ the pioneering dub poet used his work to fight injustice, and blazed brightly in post as Professor of Creative Writing at Brunel.
Still gutted this legend has passed yet his presence endures.
Rest peacefully. 15.04.58 - 07.12.23
When someone walks out on you, let them go.Remember, you got their attention the first time you've met. Don't go after them, they will find their way back to you once they have realized your worth. If not, then someone out there is better than them to recieve your attention..
Remember you sent me the little plastic pieces. I wasn't able to come up with an MCM cabinet, but I did use them as the perfect shelves for my fridge! It came with no shelves. What do you think?
Remembering the sacrifice of our fallen soldiers today, on Memorial Day. This series is from the Flags In ceremony with IGDC on Thursday at Arlington National Cemetery. You can see the main gallery on my @Livingwf8 Instagram account.
The Fifth of November
Remember, remember!
The fifth of November,
The Gunpowder treason and plot;
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!
Guy Fawkes and his companions
Did the scheme contrive,
To blow the King and Parliament
All up alive.
Threescore barrels, laid below,
To prove old England's overthrow.
But, by God's providence, him they catch,
With a dark lantern, lighting a match!
A stick and a stake
For King James's sake!
If you won't give me one,
I'll take two,
The better for me,
And the worse for you.
A rope, a rope, to hang the Pope,
A penn'orth of cheese to choke him,
A pint of beer to wash it down,
And a jolly good fire to burn him.
Holloa, boys! holloa, boys! make the bells ring!
Holloa, boys! holloa boys! God save the King!
Hip, hip, hooor-r-r-ray!
Remember the little tiny kitten my sister rescued?
This is him a month later.
He's changed just a bit.
For one, he lost his baby blues...but, oh that sweet adorable face and whiskas!!!
Too cute to resist!!! I want him.
Seriously, I have tried sneaking him out the door!!
